Bluetooth & landline telephone help please
Where can I get advice on this matter? I have a Phonak Audio hearing aid
that is Bluetooth enabled. I need a landline telephone that will pair with it. I have tried 2 different phones, neither will pair with the hearing aid. Where can I get help please? I have searched the net to no avail, contacted the hearing aid manufacturer and received no response. I need a landline phone as the mobile signal is a bit iffy also we get fairly frequent power outages here, so a landline phone is a great help. |

Can any Bluetooth device see the hearing aid? Is there some combination of button pushes on the HA to get it to pair? Does it need a password, usually 0000? -- Roger Hayter |

I have followed the hearing aid manufacturers instructions to pair the the hearing aid and telephone, it never finds it. The H A pairs fine to a mobile phone, but I really need a line phone to connect. I am not sure what you mean by "profile". |

The bluetooth specification provides numerous profiles e.g. "handsfree profile", "headset profile", "advanced audio profile" if the hearing and and phone don't have at lest one profile in common they won't communicate. Does the hearing aid require e.g. BLE? (bluetooth low energy) What model is it? |

What are the makes & model numbers of the phones you have tried. I assume they are DECT cordless systems but you don't say. Do they even have a Bluetooth facility? Most don't. Many have inductive-loop but not Bluetooth. -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |

I've got the S850, and they seem ok. They do SMS, and allegedly VOIP but I haven't tried the latter so I don't know how useful it is. I wouldn't recommend th S810, which is obsolescent anyway, because the handsets all seem to fail in 1 to 5 years.

Cheers Dave R Yes thanks DR, I have given all the information in previous posts n this thread. OK. I read through and couldn't be sure exactly what testing you had done. Especially I couldn't be certain that you had successfully paired another BT device with the phone. I was going to suggest that, as you can get a BT headset for around £15, it might be worth trying one to see if that would pair with the phone. Or borrow one from someone for testing purposes. Looking on line your phone seems well old, and the links to approved BT headsets don't seem to be there any more. If you are going for a new phone I presume you can "try before you buy" to ensure that you can pair your existing BT device with it. Best of luck.
